Very nice.
This one was an really boombox + tv repair multimeter! 
I got it from the PHILIPS service center, when they bought new ones (the grey units).
Normally the old stuff always must get destroyed to prevend pre-selling.
But when your are looking, there is always a way....

Now THAT makes me ooh and aah way more than any funky videos of warehouse style stacked boomboxes.Aiwa said:just a pic from work shop...
Hey AIWA,
What diagnostic purpose does the bottle of wine serve? Do you use that to treat the belts or something?

lol...71spud said:If it was build before WWII they usually just fish the wires through the bullet holes right?
I wonder what they do in old castles... wire-track it all?
The house is built with more the 40cm walls...
(that might be 16inch)
.............dunno what walls you`ve got over there...
My walls are 7" tops ( 1/2" drywall, 2x6 (really 5 1/2), 1/2" chipboard and vinyl siding ) They will not withstand an attack of any sort...Aiwa said:lol...71spud said:If it was build before WWII they usually just fish the wires through the bullet holes right?

Agree %100 with superduper. Fixing then is also a pleasure 
... there are some exceptions ...
A have voltimeter and a Storage Oscope (20Mhz).
I think that a function generator and a universal counter (or some combo) would be a great adition
You have lot of eq. there and from well known brands .
In my prev. work I used to have more instruments. There was a vintage HP RLC (oohhhh I love those with red digits), a KEPCO power supply (the MOST accurate, reliable amd solid I've ever seen), and Advantest (RS) Spectrum Analizer and the friendly and always ready fluke scopemeter 123. When I moved, I missed the Kepco and the Fluke :'-( :'-( . I always dream of buying these .. but they are soooo expensive.
The Fluke 123 in Argentina is near 1500 dollars and the KEPCO (preowned, buyed at spin electronics) cost 1000 euro !!!.
If someone is looking for a good power supply, keep this in mind.

990 for me, ever!
Come on Success. Once you conquer that 990, you'll feel much better and different. I love the 990. In fact, just lugged it out to listen and it's great. Mechanism IS soft touch and smooth. Application is very smooth, FF is quiet, RW is quiet. I love it! Great well built machine. Could use more chrome as opposed to painted buttons but that might be nitpicking.
